In the continuing saga of the “Totoong Narcolist”,
wherein alawyer Jude Sabio name dropped former senator Antonio Trillanes IV as
the mastermind which has the primordial intent to spread through social media that
claimed President Duterte and his children were involved with illegal drug
syndicates.
President Rodrigo Roa Duterte has urged Atty. Sabio
to simply tell the truth, after the latter turned the tables against erstwhile
ally former senator Antonio Trillanes IV.
In an interview the President said he would advise
Sabio to tell the truth on whatever testimony he would give in open court.
Duterte also said he has not met Sabio personally.

“So, unless magkausap kami, matanong ko, ‘Bakit?
Ano ba talaga ang totoo, adre?’ And he says that he wants to testify, sabihin
ko lang, ‘Yeah, you just tell the truth’,” the President said.
“If the truth favors Trillanes and all, fine. Kung
it favors... May nag-file eh, pero hindi ako. I never filed because those are
the – what you would call the vagaries of politics,” Duterte added.
In one of the speeches of the President, he made
mention of Jude Sabio as regards also the involvement of other personalities in
the Bikoy videos.
“Pa-Bikoy-Bikoy, sinasakyan rin nila. O ngayon
nakita mo ’yung Bikoy eh ‘di pati ang madre,” Duterte said.
“Tapos ‘yung si Jude – ‘yung kanilang
Jude Sabio bumaligtad na ngayon. Gusto na siya na ang witness kay
Trillanes sa sedition. Kita mo ang politika ng Pilipinas,” he said.
It might be recalled that it was Atty. Jude Sabio
who led the filing of a communication about extrajudicial killings before the
International Criminal Court (ICC), and is the same person who counseled for the
alleged self-confessed Davao Death Squad hitman Edgar Matobato.
